| "Bergamot oil is the only citrus oil in which (+)-limonene (26%) is not the dominant component. The oil is instead rich in linalool (16%) and linalyl acetate (34%). In addition, further 175 constituents have bee characterized, of which 26 (96% of the total oil) occur in concentrations above 0.1%. As with other citrus oils, the majority of the components are present in trace amounts... trans-bergamotene (0.3%) being the dominant sesquiterpene... important trace constituents are aldehydes of the β-substituted α-methyl acrolein type such as β-sinensal, lanceal, and bergamotenal [with its strong woody odor], despite their low abundance... the important ketones are (+)-nootkatone, (+)-8,9-didehydronootkatone, and camphorenone." \\ | "Bergamot oil is the only citrus oil in which (+)-limonene (26%) is not the dominant component.

| | "Almost all the world’s production of bergamot oil is sourced from crop to factory in Calabria, southern Italy. This iconic citrus fruit whose aromatic skin has delivered an essential oil used in many flavour and fragrance applications for centuries, Earl Grey tea and Eau de Cologne being just two of them. It takes 4-5 years for a bergamot tree to bear fruit. Each tree produces around 100 kilograms of fruit per year; two |
| | trees are required to produce one single kilogram of essential oil." [[https://www.givaudan.com/sites/givaudanweb.int/files/download_links/GIV_2019_IntegratedAnnualReport.pdf]] |
